SAN Francisco, CAL, August lS.-Ar-
gument was commenced before Supreme
Justice Field and Judges Sawyer, Hofi-
man and Sabine in the United States
court, in the case Of the petition OF the
Pacific railroad committee against STAN
ford. The district attorney argued that
the act Of congress creating the
commission called for an entire
exposure Of the company's doingF.
Counsel for railroad used the same line
of argument substantially as does Sem
ator Stanford, and asserts that the "pry-
ing" OF the commission into private
matters rendered their work uncOn-
stitutional Both parties were allowed
till Monday to file briefs.

A General Indian War Feared

DENVER, August lS.-News specisl-A
northern courier has learned that the
white Ute Indians have sent runners to
the UncOmpahgre camp, Black Foot,
Sioux. Crow, and other tribes in Colo
RADIO, Wyoming, Montana and idaho for
aid.
Ca'orow knows that he must fight, and
this will be the decisive battle, and that
IL will end the Indian question
forever. He has determined, it is
said, to have other tribes brought into
the present difficulties, and, while the
outbreak has been local so far, he wants
to make 1t a national one. Runners are
reported to have started for the camps
of other tribes from Yellow Jacket Pass
on Sunday night. Duncan, Blair

OF Colorado, asking for aid In suppress
ing the Utes outbreak General Cook
said yesterday that the scene Of
the outbreak is not located In
his department, although the nearest
military post, that Of Fort Duchesne, in
Utah, is under his command. While the
general has his forces at that point, as
also at number Of others, in readiness
to give aid at very short notice, yet be
does not feel justified, with the in
formation he has, In taking the initia-
tive, especially as he has no
knowledge as to the whereabouts OF the
Indians and his information as to the
damage they have done is indefinite and
unsatisfactory. The general accordingly
forwarded copy Of the telegram sent
by wire TO General Morrit, commander
of the department of Missouri, who has
charge OF the troublesome district.

American Steamships Available in
Naval War.

1t is probable that in the event Of war
an auxiliary navy would be called into
service from the regular lines Of Ameri-
can steamers. These would be armed
with a few of the small. high. powered
modern guns and turned into "com-
merce destroyers." With the object OF
sscertsining the number and speed OF
such merchant steamers as could be
quickly transformed into lightly armed
cruisers, a series Of Investigations has
been recently made at the instance OF
the government. The result show thas
there are now sixty-nine vessels that
would be available as an auxiliary naval
force. OF these, eleven are capable OF
maintaining a speed of Is knots per
hour; fifteen, speed OF IA knots; six

Killed by Etiquette.

The red tapeism Of the medical pro-
fession in this city would make angels
weep II 1t were not too ridiculous. The
"Var with disease" which this profess
sion has ostensibly enlisted to wage
seems of altogether secondary consider
alton when weighed in the balances of
their own self imposed and senseless
prescriptions. Like the college youth
who lamented when seeing gentleman
drown, that 1t was a pity he had not
been introduced to him he might have
just as well saved him as not. There is
in this city regular medical practition-
er, q graduate from a recognized school
of medicine. This physician is tabooed
because he advertises. No other
physician will consult with him, nor
will these iron-Clad sticklers for etiquette
consult with any physician who con
suits with or aids this medical black
sheep. A few days since he had a case Of
surgery on hand In which he needed
assistance. Not a physician in this city
would come to the relief Of poor suffer
ing humanity in the shape Of broken
limbed patient, because fUrsOOth the
doctor who had his case, advertised his
profession in the papers. That broken
legged man was left for hours 10 his
agony while his physician, who adver-
tises, went from doctor to doctor with
tears in his eyes, imploring the aid which
1t was needful to secure before the case
could be attended to properly. This in
formation reaches the LIGHT direct, but
not by the mouth or pen OF the adver-
Using doctor. Such inhumanity among
the medical fraternity Of this city Is
standing reproach to the humanity OF
the profession. There are noble minded
men In the medical ranks Of this oity
who should scorn to be made slaves OF
In this manner.

The First Night of an Actress.

me NlBIil VI an fN1li
Renee was not a success upon the
boards. When the curtain rose for the
first scene OF the play which had been
written for her, she looked like per-
fectly good little Gree In the midst Of
deliberately wicked swine. She was
fascinating and sweet, and her support
was third-rate and coarse. A villain
who was villain, and lady friend
whom Renee would not have bowed to
on the street, struck chill at once up
OH the audience. Renee herself showed
unavoidable orudites, although shot
over by means Of promise which time
alone could bring to supremacy. Be-
sides. the child had not obtained her full
magnetic growth; she looked slight, and
did not fill the stage. small as 1t is, with
her presence. Applause that Is not gem
uine is the worse device In the world.
We all helped toward Renee's destruc-
ton by encores. At last she became
angry, and acted ten times better, and
we really had some hopes for her; but
next day the newspaper critics were
very clever over IL all. and IL was clear
that the girls career was begun, as all
are. at the foot Of the lRdder.-Mrs. Rose
